How to delay your period

Menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon, usually with a cycle of one month. It is very important for women. If menstruation is delayed for a long time, it is usually a manifestation of abnormal menstruation, which needs to be taken seriously and actively regulated. However, sometimes, due to some special reasons, menstruation needs to be postponed. In daily life, how to postpone menstruation?

How to delay menstruation?

1. Oral contraceptives: Oral contraceptives are one of the commonly used methods to delay menstruation. The birth control pill consists of a low dose of estrogen combined with a high dose of progestin. Since contraceptives contain a higher dose of progestin, taking the pill can maintain and prolong the secretory phase of the endometrium and prevent exfoliation, thereby achieving the purpose of delaying menstruation.

Directions:

① For those with regular menstruation, you can start taking oral contraceptive pills for visiting relatives 3-5 days before your period, one pill every night, and take it continuously until the end of the activity. Your period will come 3-5 days after stopping the medication.

② For those who are currently taking short-acting contraceptives, they can continue taking them after taking 22 tablets.

③ In the second half of the menstrual cycle, it is best to take oral contraceptives every day, two tablets a day, starting one week before the next menstrual period, until three days before the date of your scheduled delayed menstruation. This can achieve the purpose of delaying menstruation.

But some women take the medicine for 2-3 months at a time or for several months at a time in order to reduce the frequency of menstruation. This is not advisable. Because the hypothalamus, pituitary gland and endometrium are not easy to recover after being excessively suppressed by drugs.

2. Simple progestin: The mechanism of using simple progestin to delay menstruation is the same as that of contraceptive pills.

How to take: There are many types of progestins, and the more commonly used one is oral progesterone. Generally take 2 tablets each time, 2-3 times a day. You can also inject progesterone 20 mg intramuscularly once a day, 2-3 days before the onset of menstruation until the desired period. Injectable medications are natural preparations with minimal gastrointestinal reactions, but injections are more troublesome to use. However, since pure progestin drugs do not contain estrogen, their effect in delaying menstruation is not as stable as that of birth control pills.
